Brunhild: A Tragedy From The Nibelung Saga is a play written by German poet and playwright Emanuel Geibel in 1879. The play is based on the Nibelung Saga, a collection of medieval Germanic legends that tell the story of the hero Siegfried and his wife Kriemhild, as well as the conflicts between the Burgundian and Hunnish kingdoms.The play focuses on the character of Brunhild, a powerful queen and warrior who is often portrayed as a villain in the Nibelung Saga. In Geibel's version, however, Brunhild is given a more sympathetic portrayal as a tragic figure caught between her duty as a queen and her love for Siegfried.The play is divided into five acts and features a large cast of characters, including Siegfried, Kriemhild, Gunther (the king of the Burgundians), Hagen (Gunther's advisor), and Attila (the king of the Huns). The plot revolves around the conflict between Brunhild and Kriemhild, who both love Siegfried but are ultimately torn apart by their loyalty to their respective kingdoms.Geibel's play is known for its lush, poetic language and its exploration of themes such as love, duty, and betrayal. It has been praised for its psychological depth and its innovative approach to the Nibelung Saga, which was traditionally seen as a source of heroic legends rather than tragic drama.Preceded By A Brief Account Of The Nibelung Epics And Sagas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
